While many have claimed that Pokemon: Detective Pikachu holds the title for best video game adaptation, some have also said it's the best Hollywood anime movie. However, some fans feel that this title actually belongs to Robert Rodriguez's Alita: Battle Angel, which wasn't liked by the critics but got a lot of love from fans of the source material and anime in general.
The film premiered back in February and everyone has been wondering when it will be coming to home media via digital services or Blu-Ray. Thanks to CinemaBlend, we now know when it will be available to everyone but fans are going to have to wait for a semi-long time. We will be getting this in-home media in July.
According to the report, the digital version of this movie will be coming out on July 9. Digital releases are always released ahead of the Blu-Ray version, so this isn't much of a surprise. Fans who want the Blu-Ray will have to wait until July 23.
Interestingly enough, they also announced the inclusion of three motion comics that flesh out the world of Alita: Battle Angel: The Fall, Iron City, and Rules of the Game. Each of those shorts will help the audience learn more about the infamous events that preceded those of the film, as well as draw more depth into the city itself, and the sport of Motorball.
